Title: MtGox broken? Or I don't know how to use bitcoin? Post by: hello_good_sir on June 04, 2011, 03:15:57 PM Hi, about a month ago I bought some bitcoins on MtGox. I have decided to move my coins to my computer. I installed the bitcoin client from bitcoin.org and looked at my address. I then went to MtGox and initiated a test withdrawal. Shortly thereafter I had one fewer bitcoin on MtGox. I have been hoping for that bitcoin to show up on the bitcoin client but it has not. It has been over 24 hours. I have checked my MtGox history and it says that they sent me a bitcoin. It shows the address that they sent it to, which is the same that I am receiving to. Is MtGox broken?

If the number of blocks is not increasing try forwarding port 8333, 5 connections sounds like you haven't. Title: Re: MtGox broken? Or I don't know how to use bitcoin? Post by: Kain on June 04, 2011, 03:21:40 PM The above posted is correct.
According to block explorer, your 1 BTC has been confirmed, and should show up once you have the block chain. Title: Re: MtGox broken? Or I don't know how to use bitcoin? Post by: hello_good_sir on June 04, 2011, 03:29:38 PM Thank you very much. I actually had a hunch that that might be the case but after so many hours I assumed that I would have the block chain by now, and then I forgot about my theory. My block count is increasing and it looks like I am at about 94%. So at that rate it should be an hour or so. Thanks both of you!
